What's been happening at All Saints' this week? In Nursery, Miss Ingledew has been completing assessments with us. We have also enjoyed exploring our own interests in the Nursery. In Reception, the children have been up to all sorts! On Monday, we had our first session on "Welcoming The Stranger." We have used glitter to make our lollipop figures for our daily emotion check-in, relating to the colour of the Colour Monster story that the children love. The children enjoyed our autumn-based version of Operation, where they had to use tweezers to collect as many conkers as possible without touching the tape! We have been practising cutting by making paper chain dolls, linking to our book of the week, "Paper Dolls" by Julia Donaldsen. Lastly, as the weather turned colder, we all enjoyed hot chocolate and marshmallows to warm us up in the morning. What a lovely week Reception! In Year 1, the children met artists Vicky, Ali and (of course) Bear. They gave bear 'bear hugs' and asked lots of questions. This was the start of their 'Welcoming the stranger project' that both Reception and Year 1 class are involved in. Bear, Ali and Vicky will be working with us every Monday as part of a CDEC project. The project aims to enhance imagination, creativity and empathy through the use of a puppet bear. In Year 3, the class did "chocolate geology in their science lesson. During the activity, the children thought about the science model for different types of rock: sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous. In Year 4, the children had Forest School. The children were surprised to see flames from a mythical beast decorating the trees. The children made pictures and food platters using their surroundings and the materials they could find. They were introduced to a bone-saw and how to use it safely. The wood cookies will be used to decorate our RE box – part of the display in our school hall. Year 4's theme is hopefulness and the story of Noah's Ark. Well done Year 4! In Year 5 and Year 6, the classes participated in a Quidditch session. All of our classes in Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 enjoyed Quidditch Day. At the beginning of the day, the children were sorted into 4 teams by the Sorting Hat, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin. The teams then learned the rules of Quidditch before competing in Quidditch games with their classmates. The children really enjoyed this experience and at the end of the day, Hufflepuff house were crowned champions!
